Hi guys, had a quick look through some of your forum and found some handy information. Not yet done any posting but that may start very soon.
I have owned a number of patrols over the years inc
82' Datsun Patrol SWB 3.3D
86' Nissan Patrol SWB 3.3D
87' Patrol SWB 2.8 petrol
94' Patrol LWB 4.2 Petrol
92' Patrol LWB Kingsroad 4.2D Modded this one lift tyres etc
95' Patrol LWB petrol auto
96' LWB petrol auto converted to 4.2 diesel manual
then a wee gap
Now I own 3 Patrols all LWB
2x 96' 2.8tdi's one for my mother the other for my partner.
And my 4.2 Diesel With a few mods so far....
Safari Snorkel
37x13.50 R16 Mudzillas on 4" offset steels
5" lift (home made) with custom +4 extra heavy duty springs 9" lift...!!!
exterior visor
60mm spacers
Skyline R34 turbo running 14psi Boost
2.5" straight through exhaust with 4" cherry bomb in centre.
Back end had a lot of rot so cut out all the crap and 2.5 feet of the back of the chassis and started again so she is more than solid. 80x80 6mm wall box 8 and 6mm gussets and angled strengtheners.
LED rear lights.
Also made a new tank guard from 4mm Steel folded to shape.
Winch bumper from 6mm plate again made from scratch...
And we'll see what happens next......
I have a back ground working in the forestry industry and working on and modding 4 wheel drives, mainly Land Rovers though.
I have my own small business AWD Solutions specialising in Land Rovers note I don't run one myself though....
I do anything from basic servicing to full vehicle builds... I have a few other toys inc Volvo TGB's and Volvo BV202. 2x TGB1111's one standard one heavily modded and a TGB13 6 wheel drive long wheel base with 6.5 diesel V8 fitted... My cars are Lexus LS or classics.
So that's a bit about me and what I'm about.
G'day........!!!!
